I was wondering if anyone knew from where Hasbro got the idea for one of the 2007/8 Red Ninja accessories. Its the silver "Man-Catcher" thing as referred to by Yojoe.com here:

I seem to remember it being mentioned somewhere that it was originally seen in the comic or the cartoon somewhere. I know a lot of the accessories Hasbro makes these days are drawn from such sources, I just couldn't recall this particular reference.
